KwabaseRoma 11
1 Ngakho ngithi: UNkulunkulu ubalahlile yini abantu bakhe? Phinde! Ngoba lami ngingumIsrayeli, owenzalo kaAbrahama, wesizwe sikaBhenjamini.
Afei, mebisa sɛ Onyankopɔn ato ne ɔman atwene anaa? Dabi. Mʼankasa meyɛ Israelni na meyɛ Abraham aseni a mefiri Benyamin abusua mu.
2 UNkulunkulu kabalahlanga abantu bakhe abazi ngaphambili. Kumbe kalazi yini kuElija ukuthi umbhalo uthini? Ukuthi walabhela njani kuNkulunkulu emelene loIsrayeli, esithi:
Onyankopɔn ampo ne nkurɔfoɔ a ɔyii wɔn ahyɛaseɛ no. Monim deɛ Atwerɛsɛm no ka fa Elia sɛdeɛ ɔkasa tiaa Israelfoɔ wɔ Onyankopɔn anim sɛ,
3 Nkosi, babulele abaprofethi bakho, badilizile amalathi akho; mina-ke ngisele ngedwa, sebedinga umphefumulo wami.
“Awurade, wɔakum wʼadiyifoɔ na wɔadwiri wʼafɔrebukyia, na me nko na maka a wɔpɛ sɛ wɔkum me.”
4 Kodwa impendulo kaNkulunkulu yathini kuye? Yathi: Ngizitshiyele amadoda azinkulungwane eziyisikhombisa, angaguqanga ngedolo kuBhali.
Mmuaeɛ bɛn na Onyankopɔn de maa no? Onyankopɔn kaa sɛ, “Mewɔ nnipa mpemnson a wɔnsom ɔbosom Baal.”
5 Kunjalo-ke kukhona langalesisikhathi insali ngokukhetha komusa.
Saa ara nso na ɛte ɛnnɛ. Nnipa kakra bi wɔ hɔ a Onyankopɔn nam ne dom so ayi wɔn.
6 Kodwa uba kungomusa, kakusayi ngemisebenzi; uba kungenjalo umusa kawuseyiwo umusa. Kodwa aluba kusiya ngemisebenzi, kakuseyiwo umusa; uba kungenjalo umsebenzi kawusengumsebenzi.
Yi a wayi wɔn no gyina nʼadom so na ɛnyɛ wɔn nnwuma so. Na sɛ Onyankopɔn yi a ɔyi nnipa no gyina wɔn nnwuma so a, ɛnneɛ na adom no nyɛ adom turodoo.
7 Pho-ke? Lokhu uIsrayeli ayekudinga, lokho kakutholanga, kodwa abakhethiweyo bakuthola, labanye benziwa baba lukhuni;
Ɛnneɛ na ɛne ɛdeɛn? Deɛ Israelfoɔ tii akyire hwehwɛeɛ no, wɔn nsa anka, na mmom, kakraa a Onyankopɔn ayi wɔn no deɛ, wɔn nsa kaeɛ. Wɔn a wɔaka no pirim wɔn akoma
8 njengokulotshiweyo ukuthi: UNkulunkulu wabanika umoya wobuthongo obukhulu, amehlo ukuze bangaboni, lendlebe ukuze bangezwa, kuze kube lusuku lwalamuhla.
sɛdeɛ Atwerɛsɛm no ka sɛ, “Onyankopɔn maa wɔn honhom a ɛyɛ tebɔɔ, ani a ɛmma wɔnhunu adeɛ aso a ɛmma wɔnnte asɛm, de bɛsi ɛnnɛ.”
9 LoDavida uthi: Itafula labo libe ngumjibila lesifu, lesikhubekiso, lempindiselo kubo;
Na Dawid ka sɛ, “Ma wɔn didipono a ɛsi wɔn anim nyi wɔn sɛ afidie na wɔnhwehwe ase na wɔntwe wɔn aso!
10 amehlo abo kafiphazwe ukuze bangaboni, njalo ugobise umhlana wabo njalonjalo.
Ma wɔn ani so nyɛ wɔn kusuu na wɔanhunu adeɛ; na wɔn akyi nkuntunu afebɔɔ.”
11 Ngakho ngithi: Bakhubeka ukuze bawe yini? Phinde! Kodwa ngesiphambeko sabo usindiso lufikile kwabezizwe, ukubavusela umona.
Afei, mebisa sɛ, ɛberɛ a Yudafoɔ yɛɛ bɔne no, ɛde wɔn kɔɔ ɔsɛeɛ mu anaa? Dabi! Amanamanmufoɔ nam Yudafoɔ no bɔne a wɔyɛeɛ no so nyaa nkwagyeɛ. Yei maa Yudafoɔ no twee wɔn so ninkunu.
12 Kodwa uba isiphambeko sabo siyinotho yomhlaba, lokwehluleka kwabo kuyinotho yabezizwe, kakhulu kangakanani ukugcwala kwabo?
Yudafoɔ no bɔne a wɔyɛeɛ no de nnepa brɛɛ ewiase na wɔn honhom mu hia a wɔdiiɛ no nso de ahonya brɛɛ amanamanmufoɔ. Na ɛba sɛ Yudafoɔ no mu bebree bɛka wɔn ho a, nhyira mmorosoɔ bɛn na ɛremma?
13 Ngoba ngikhuluma lani bezizwe, njengalokho mina ngingumphostoli wabezizwe; ngikhulisa inkonzo yami;
Afei, merekasa akyerɛ mo amanamanmufoɔ: Esiane sɛ meyɛ amanamanmufoɔ somafoɔ enti, mehoahoa me ho wɔ adwuma a wɔde ahyɛ me nsa no ho.
14 ukuthi mhlawumbe ngibavusele umona abenyama yami, ngisindise abanye babo.
Sɛ ɛbɛtumi a, mɛma wɔn a wɔyɛ me nuanom Yudafoɔ no kɔn adɔ deɛ mo amanamanmufoɔ nsa aka yi bi, na wɔnam so agye wɔn mu bi nkwa.
15 Ngoba uba ukulahlwa kwabo kuyikubuyiswa komhlaba, kungaba yini ukwemukelwa, ngaphandle kokuthi kuyimpilo kwabafileyo?
Na sɛ wɔn po a wɔpoo wɔn no ama Onyankopɔn ne ewiasefoɔ aka abom a, ɛnneɛ, gye a Onyankopɔn bɛgye wɔn no de ɛdeɛn na ɛbɛba? Ɛde nkwa bɛbrɛ awufoɔ.
16 Njalo uba izithelo zokuqala zingcwele, lenhlama injalo; uba-ke impande ingcwele, lengatsha zinjalo.
Sɛ wɔde burodo sin ma Onyankopɔn a, ɛnneɛ na ne mu nyinaa yɛ ne dea. Saa ara nso na sɛ dua no nhini yɛ kronkron a, ne mman no nyinaa nso yɛ kronkron.
17 Kodwa uba kwephulwe ezinye ingatsha, lawe ongumhlwathi weganga waxhunyelelwa phakathi kwazo, uhlanganyele lazo impande lamafutha omhlwathi,
Wɔapempan ngo dua a wɔahyɛda adua no mman no bi agu, na wɔde ngo dua a wɔanhyɛda annua no mman abɛhyɛ nʼanan mu. Mo amanamanmufoɔ no te sɛ ngo dua a wɔanhyɛ da annua, nanso afei deɛ, mo ne Yudafoɔ no nyinaa anya Onyankopɔn adom a wɔde adom wɔn no bi.
18 ungazincomi phezu kwengatsha; kodwa uba uzincoma phezu kwazo, kayisuwe othwele impande, kodwa impande wena.
Nanso monhwɛ yie na moanhoahoa mo ho sɛ wɔde mo asi mman a wɔapempan no ananmu. Monkae sɛ moyɛ mman kɛkɛ, na monyɛ nhini.
19 Uzakuthi-ke: Ingatsha zephulwa, ukuze mina ngixhunyelwe.
Na mobɛka sɛ, “Ɛyɛ, wɔbubuu mman no sɛ wɔmfa me nsi wɔn ananmu.”
20 Kulungile; zephulwa ngokungakholwa, wena-ke umi ngokholo. Ungazikhukhumezi, kodwa yesaba;
Aane, nanso monkae sɛ wɔpempan saa mman a ɛyɛ Yudafoɔ no, ɛfiri sɛ wɔannye Onyankopɔn anni, na mogye di enti na mowɔ hɔ. Mommma mo ho so, na mmom monsuro deɛ ɛbɛtumi asie.
21 ngoba uba uNkulunkulu engayekelanga ingatsha zemvelo, hlezi lawe kayikukuyekela.
Na sɛ Onyankopɔn amfa Yudafoɔ a wɔte sɛ ngo dua pa mman no bɔne ankyɛre wɔn a, mosusu sɛ ɔde mo bɔne bɛkyɛ mo?
22 Khangela-ke ububele lobukhali bukaNkulunkulu; ubukhali, kulabo abawayo; kodwa kuwe, ububele, uba uhlala ebubeleni; uba kungenjalo uzaqunywa lawe.
Enti monhwɛ Onyankopɔn ayamyɛ ne ne denyɛ. Ɔyɛ den wɔ wɔn a wɔyɛɛ asoɔden no so, nanso ne yam yɛ ma mo wɔ ɛberɛ a mode mo ho ato nʼayamyɛ so. Na sɛ moamfa mo ho anto no so a, saa ara na wɔbɛpempan mo.
23 Lalabo futhi, uba bengahlali ekungakholweni, bazaxhunyelwa, ngoba uNkulunkulu ulamandla okubuya abaxhume.
Na sɛ Yudafoɔ no gye di bio a, Onyankopɔn bɛsane de wɔn ayɛ dua no mman bio. Ɔbɛtumi ayɛ saa.
24 Ngoba uba wena waqunywa emhlwathini weganga ngemvelo, wasuxhunyelelwa ngokuphambene lemvelo emhlwathini ohlanyelweyo, kakhulu kangakanani labo, abazingatsha ngemvelo, bazaxhunyelelwa esihlahleni sakibo somhlwathi?
Na sɛ Onyankopɔn pɛɛ sɛ ɔde mo a moyɛ wiram ngo dua mman bɛfam dua papa a ɔno ankasa adua ho, deɛ anka ɛmfa kwan mu a, ɛnneɛ ɔbɛpɛ no mmorosoɔ sɛ ɔde Yudafoɔ no bɛfam dua a ɛyɛ wɔn ankasa dea no ho.
25 Ngoba ngithanda ukuthi lingabi ngabangaziyo, bazalwane, ngalimfihlo, hlezi lizitshaye abahlakaniphileyo, ukuthi ubulukhuni sebehlele uIsrayeli nganxanye, kuze kungene ukugcwala kwabezizwe;
Me nuanom, ahintasɛm bi wɔ hɔ a mepɛ sɛ mote aseɛ, sɛdeɛ monnyɛ ahantan na monhoahoa mo ho. Yudafoɔ no mu bi apirim wɔn akoma, nanso sɛ amanamanmufoɔ no nyinaa dane ba Kristo nkyɛn a, ɛtoɔ bɛtwa.
26 ngokunjalo-ke uIsrayeli wonke uzasindiswa; njengokulotshiweyo ukuthi: Kuzavela eSiyoni uMkhululi, asuse ukungabi loNkulunkulu kuJakobe;
Enti Israelfoɔ nyinaa bɛnya nkwagyeɛ. Mokae deɛ adiyifoɔ no kaa wɔ yei ho? “Agyenkwa no bɛfiri Sion aba, na ɔbɛyi amumuyɛsɛm nyinaa afiri Yakob asefoɔ mu.
27 njalo yilesi isivumelwano sami kubo, lapho ngizasusa izono zabo.
Na mɛdi apam a me ne wɔn ayɛ no so na mapepa wɔn bɔne.”
28 Ngokwevangeli bayizitha ngenxa yenu; kodwa ngokukhetha bangabathandiweyo ngenxa yabobaba;
Yudafoɔ no bebree ayɛ Asɛmpa no atamfoɔ. Na mo, amanamanmufoɔ anya ho mfasoɔ, ɛfiri sɛ Onyankopɔn de nʼakyɛdeɛ no ama mo. Nanso, Yudafoɔ yɛ ne ɔman a wapa wɔn ara, ɛsiane ɛbɔ a wahyɛ wɔn nananom enti,
29 ngoba izipho zomusa lokubiza kukaNkulunkulu kakulakuphenduka.
ɛfiri sɛ Onyankopɔn akyɛdeɛ ne ne frɛ no, wɔnsesa.
30 Ngoba njengalokhu lani kade lingamlaleli uNkulunkulu, kodwa khathesi selihawukelwe ngenxa yokungalaleli kwabo;
Na mo amanamanmufoɔ deɛ, ɛberɛ a atwam no mu, moyɛɛ asoɔden tiaa Onyankopɔn, nanso Yudafoɔ no poo nʼahummɔborɔ no enti Onyankopɔn hunuu mo mmɔbɔ mmom.
31 ngokunjalo lalabo khathesi kabalalelanga, ukuze ngesihawu senu bahawukelwe labo;
Saa ara nso na ɛsiane adom a moanya no enti, seesei, Yudafoɔ no nso ayɛ asoɔden atia Onyankopɔn. Nanso nna bi akyire no wɔn nso bɛnya Onyankopɔn adom no.
Onyankopɔn aka nnipa nyinaa ahyɛ wɔn asoɔden ase sɛdeɛ ɔbɛyɛ adom ama obiara. (eleēsē g1653)
33 Yeka ukujula kwenotho, kokubili eyenhlakanipho leyolwazi lukaNkulunkulu! Kakuphenyeki kangakanani ukwahlulela kwakhe, lendlela zakhe kazilandeleki!
Ao Onyankopɔn ahonya ne nyansa ne nimdeɛ bunu a emu dɔ! Hwan na ɔbɛtumi ahunu nʼatemmuo mu pɛɛpɛeɛ, na wɔahunu deɛ nʼakwan nenam.
34 Ngoba ngubani owazi ingqondo yeNkosi? Kumbe ngubani owaba ngumeluleki wayo?
“Hwan na ɔnim Awurade adwene anaasɛ hwan na ɔyɛ ne fotufoɔ?”
35 Kumbe ngubani owamnika kuqala, njalo kubuyiselwe kuye?
“Hwan na wama Onyankopɔn biribi kane a ɛsɛ sɛ Onyankopɔn tua no so ka?”
